1962 Thunderbird Convertable on 2040-cars

Year:1962 Mileage:4205
Location:

Marshall, Texas, United States

I am selling my 1962 Thunderbird convertible as I do not have time to drive it or restore it as I had planed. New house, kids work and another project vehicle. I have had this car for 5 years . I have replaced the brake drums and pads, new fuel tank, a couple of the convertible top electrical relays, water pump and fuel pump (Last month). The carburetor was sent of to Pony Carburetors in New Mexico for a complete rebuild about 1500 miles ago.This has been a good driver car but here is a list of issues or things needing replacement or repair. Needs all new tires, needs all new weather striping primarily on the soft top. The top itself has just recently decided to not come up from the down position. I think it is a relay for the main deck lid motors are turning. The Generator is not charging well. Interior is in great (not perfect) condition. No rips or tears or cracks. The car is black on black with a light blue top that is also in great condition. The rear window is a bit discolored. It has electric windows that all work, but.....when it hasn't been driven in a while and cold, the two small passenger windows seem to be real slow or stuck. May just need cleaning. Odometer shows 4205 miles but I doubt its original.

This car is originally from Northern California. I believe it was restored back in late 70's or early 80's. Looks like there was a repair to the right rear quarter panel back then. has a little wave to the panel. It runs very good once warmed up.

I am selling it as is where is with no warranty. I have been as honest as I can and hide nothing. If you have any question message me on here and I will do the best I can to answer.

Buyer is responsible for all shipping or storage fees. I can keep in my barn for a while but not overly long at $20.00 a day after auctions end. I require $500.00   to be deposited at auctions end to my account and full payment within 3 days and before pickup. If help is need for shipping arrangements I will be happy to help.

Thank you

Bruce

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.

Meet Floyd Pullin, 102-year-old honorary president of Ford trucks [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

When we talk about trucks we often talk about how loyal truck owners are; it's men like Floyd Pullin who provide the proof. The 102-year-old man from Confluence, Pennsylvania has only owned Ford products since the 1920s, and he's done so well by Ford Trucks that the division named him honorary president for a day, not long after he took delivery of his latest ride, a 2013 F-150 STX.
That's the 16th Ford he's owned. If he bought his first when he was 16, he'd have flipped into a new car or truck about every five years. For 86 years. Not a bad run of business for either side.
Ford Trucks made a video to wish Pullin a happy birthday, which was celebrated at his local Ford dealership and was visited by a Pennsylvania state senator. You can watch it below.

Last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible nets $500k for charity at Barrett-Jackson [w/video]

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

The last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible was sold on Saturday at a Barrett-Jackson auction in Reno, Nevada, for $500,000. Ford donated the Mustang to be auctioned for charity, and all of the money is going to the Brain Injury Association of America.
Parnelli Jones, winner of the 1963 Indianapolis 500, was there on behalf of the BIAA with his son Page, who suffered a brain injury in a sprint car crash in 1994. The bidding increased quickly, reaching $500k in no time, spreading a bit more hope to people who live with brain injuries.
The winning bidder will be able to choose the GT500's exterior, interior and stripe colors, and is scheduled to receive the car, signed by Parnelli Jones in appreciation for the donation, by the end of 2013. Watch the video below to see the auction-block action.
